Chapter 8 - Best Friends Ridicule (1/2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Connor was riding an electric bike and was about to rush home. It was at that moment his phone suddenly started ringing.

“Connor, where are you? Don’t you know that we have classes in the afternoon?” His roommate, Dominic, yelled in urgency from the other end of the line.

Dominic was Connor’s roommate and one of his few friends in college.

“Oh crap, I almost forgot!” Connor exclaimed. He then quickly said, “I’ll head over to class right now…”

“Hurry up!” Dominic replied in a low voice and immediately hung up.

Connor hurriedly rode his electric bike toward Porthampton University’s campus area. His first class in the afternoon was finance. It was taught by a lecturer called Ray Walkster. What Ray hated the most was students being tardy. Anyone who had the audacity to be late for his classes more than twice would have to repeat the subject the next semester.

Hence, Connor did not dare to dawdle. As soon as he arrived at Porthampton University, he quickly grabbed his food delivery bag and rushed to the classroom.

Five minutes later, he finally arrived at the classroom.

But he was still late!

When Connor got to the classroom entrance, he felt the whole class staring at him.

For a whole minute, Ray paid no heed to Connor and carried on his lecture in the class.

“Excuse me!” Connor called out as he stood by the door.

Ray finally put the pointer down and turned to look at Connor. He said coldly, “Connor McDonald, did you lose track of time delivering takeouts?

“Do you have any idea what time it is now? Are you here to learn or to deliver takeouts?”

Ray obviously was not really expecting an answer from Connor when he asked these questions. He just wanted to humiliate Connor. All students in the class burst out laughing when they heard Ray’s words.

Connor, who was currently in his yellow uniform, was holding a food delivery bag; he truly looked like a food delivery person.

“Come here. Open that food delivery bag you have in your hand and show everyone the delicious takeouts that you’ve delivered today.” Ray continued ridiculing him.

HAHAHA!

Once again, the classroom was filled with roaring laughter.

The two who laughed the loudest were Mandy and Brandon. They were currently sitting in the last row of the classroom and flirting with each other. The sight of them made Connor feel bitter. That was because when Connor was still with Mandy, she had never sat with him before.

All of his classmates obviously knew about Mandy dumping him.

“I don’t think that’s necessary,” Connor said indifferently.

Although Ray Walkster was a lecturer at Porthampton University, he was not an educator who cared about the students. On the contrary, he looked down on poor students, so he often picked on Connor in his previous lessons.

However, Ray had always tried to please the students from wealthy families. It was as if he was a lap dog.
